Albright Films is proud to announce its first theatrical feature film production currently in development. The Legend Lives is based on a true story from 1948.

Seventy-seven years ago Jeremiah Watson had a terrifying close encounter with the Jersey Devil...a legendary flying creature from New Jersey folklore. At the time, no one believed Jeremiah’s story except for his wife and his young son Jesse. Now in his eighties and still trying to redeem his father’s good name, Jesse gets his chance when the actual Jersey Devil reemerges from over seven decades of hibernation.
When a local teenage boy is found dead at the bottom of an old water well, killed from a claw wound to his jugular, Jesse’s hometown has to come to grips that his father may have been right after all.

The film features all of the elements needed to attract interest including a captivating story rich in drama, pathos, action, and intrigue. Plus, it highlights our unique version of the legend by depicting flying sequences never before seen when the Jersey Devil surveys his million acre wilderness area from above.

Previous attempts to bring the Jersey Devil to the silver screen treated the beast as a one-dimensional killing machine. However, according to the nearly 300 year-old legend, the creature was actually born a normal baby boy before being cursed.

Capitalizing on this historic point, our story exposes the Jersey Devil's human side. Displaying emotions ranging from anger, fear and frustration to sheer joy and exhilaration, The Legend Lives reveals human traits to which all audiences can relate.
